If the breakdown lamp turned on during any one (1)
second test, the stator should be cleaned and dried.
After cleaning and drying, repeat the test. If the break-
down lamp turns on during the second test, replace
the stator assembly.
TEST BETWEEN PARALLEL WINDINGS:
1 Set the tester’s voltage switch to "500 volts".
2.Connect the red tester probe to stator lead 11, the
black probe to stator lead 33.
3.Turn the tester switch ON and check that the pilot
lamp is on.
4.Waft one (1) second while observing the break-
down lamp. Then, turn the tester switch OFF.
If the breakdown lamp came on during the one (1)
second test, clean and dry the stator. Then, repeat
the test. If breakdown lamp comes on during second
test, replace the stator assembly.
TESTING ROTOR INSULATION
Before attempting to test rotor insulation, either the
brush leads must be completely removed from the
brushes or the brush holders must be completely
removed. The rotor must be completely isolated from
other components before starting the test.
1.Connect the red tester lead to the positive (+) slip
ring (nearest the rotor bearing).
2.Connect the black tester probe to a clean frame
ground, such as a clean metal part of the rotor.
3.Turn the tester switch OFF.
4.Plug the tester into a 120 volts AC wall socket and
set the voltage switch to "500 volts".
5.Turn the tester switch ON and make sure the pilot
light has turned on.
6.Observe the breakdown lamp, then turn the tester
switch OFF. DO NOT APPLY VOLTAGE LONGER
THAN ONE (1) SECOND.
If the breakdown lamp came on during the one (1)
second test, cleaning and drying of the rotor may be
necessary. After cleaning and drying, repeat the insu-
lation breakdown test. If breakdown lamp comes on
during the second test, replace the rotor assembly.

CLEANING THE GENERATOR
Caked or greasy dirt may be loosened with a soft
brush or a damp cloth. A vacuum system may be
used to clean up loosened dirt. Dust and dirt may also
be removed using dry, low-pressure air (25 psi maxi-
mum).
CAUTION: Do not use sprayed water to clean
the generator. Some of the water will be
retained on generator windings and termi-
nals, and may cause very serious problems.
DRYING THE GENERATOR
To dry a generator, proceed as follows:
1.Open the generator main circuit breaker. NO ELEC-
TRICAL LOADS MUST BE APPLIED TO THE
GENERATOR WHILE DRYING.
2.Disconnect all wires No. 4 from the voltage regula-
tor.
3.Provide an external source to blow warm, dry air
through the generator interior (around the rotor and
stator windings. DO NOT EXCEED 185° F. (85°
C.).
4.Start the generator and let it run for 2 or 3 hours.
5.Shut the generator down and repeat the stator and
rotor insulation resistance tests.
